Wallac. who resigned aa member and cLl'f en gineer of the Panama Canal Commission, and whom Secretary Taft charged with leaving: the canal work at a critical mo ment, gave a statement to the Associated Press to-night, replying to Secretary Taft. After maklnjr the statement public Mr. Wallace left the city. Ho said he was going to take a much-needed rest and va cation and did not expect to return dur ?; the summer.

Wallaca says: The primary causes which led me to tetder my resignation as chief engineer of Um Isthmian Canal Commission were underlying and fundamental, and I must emphatically resent the charge that my motive In leaving the work was a finan cial one. "A careful consideration of the entire subject had brought ma to the decision thi I should disconnect myself with the work at the earliest poesible date; th-it It could be done without embarrassment tn the administration or Injury to the work. It Is unnecessary to state the rea sons forthls decision, except that Li fair ness I ahould say that they Involve no criticism of any act of th President or the Secretary of War. "My final decision was arrived at as the result of the six days uninterrupted thought, which I was able to give the sub ject In all Its bearings during my voyage front New Tork to Colon. In May. Further more. I had pledged myself to my family to give the matter of my rcstgnation as Chief Engineer or any position which would require my continuous residence oa the Isthmus serious cor.sMeratlon, FORCEI TO COXSIDF.R BISIT4KSS PROPOSITION. "It .n at this psychological moment that I receleved a cablegram from New Tork offering me a business opportunity which I was bound to consider. I there f.fe lmm-dlately cabled the Secretary of War. requesting a oojiferenes. and arrived in New Tork for that purpose on Thurs day. June 2. "In the meantlre X had addressed a let ter to the Secretary, in which I confirmed the Interview, and also requested my an nual leave of absence, which was part of my original understanding with the lath ratan Canal Commission, and which I had requested from Admiral Walker tn March, to take fffct .t our mutual convenience some time later If the season, which re quest, however, was not compiled with or answered, owing probably to the suddn change made In the commission on the 1st of April. "On my arrival In New Tork I wa met by Mr. William Nelson Cromwell, who stated that he was delegated by the Secre tary to arrange for a pergonal Interview with me, and asked If I would meet him at the Manhattan Hotel at 2) a. m., Sun day. June S. "Whl Mr. Cromwell treated tne with the s-alty and ccurtesy. fcr which he Is noted, he endeavored tr draw from rne my rer.sc.ns for delrlng to see the Secretary. I told him frankly that I did not ccn sller it would be proper for m to discuss the matter In advr.nce of ny Interview, and I a!- requsted h'.m to errant for me with th Secretary that the Interview should b absolutely private, and that no one bat the Secretary and myself should be present.

"This action, of course, caasad trrlta ticc and apprehension on ssy part that the Interview would be unpleasant and uoeat L.faciorr. and the irritation under which the Secretary was laboring had a ten dency to prevent that calm and digwifled consideration of th questtsa la all Its bearings which sboaI4 have beea atraa r.

CZAR EXTENDS MARTIAL LAW; MUTINY AT CRONSTMT SUPPRESSB BT ASSOCIATED PREPP. Odessa. June SO. Without firing a gua or making the slightest show of resistance, the mutineers on thsKn!a Potemklno hauled down the red flag and surrendered the battleship to Vice Admiral Kruger'a squadron, which ar rived here at Boon to-day. It waa an anxious moment for Odes sa aa the squadron of five battleships and seven torpedo boats, with their crew at Quarters and their decks cleared for action, steamed within range of the Kniax Fotemkiue. the flagship flying signals, which read: "Yield, or be sunk." The display of force was too over whelming for the mutineers, and all thought of resistance waa abandoned. The Knlaz Potemklne, which had weighed anchor, started In the direc tion of I.angeron Point, near Odeswa. Ereryone expected the immediate opening of an engagement, but inxtead long Interchanges of slgnjs trere be gun, the mutineers apparently parley ing to obtain favorable terms. Finally, tte battleship stood la closer to the squadron, the Teserfa of which formed a circle around her, later the squadron resumed formation and bead ed out to sea, the Knlaz Potemklne re turning to her anchorage, accompanied by the Ekaterlna II. which placed a prize crew on board. The terms of surrender cannot be learned, as boats from the shore were not allowed to approach, but it Is thought that the mutineers received promises that the punishment pre scribed by the naval rules would be mitigated to some extent. The Ekaterlna II remains in the harbor. The dry Is still in a state of fevt-rbb anxiety. All the hotels are guarded by troops' and further re-enforccnients bare arrived. All reservations on out going trains have been taken for days ahead. RAPID SIGNALS BETWEEN INSURGENT BATTLESHIP AND FLEET COULD NOT BE READ. Odessa, June SO, Evening. This much dreaded day, to the surprise of every one, passed without a. shot being fired either ashore or afloat, while th? mutinous crew of the battl-whip Knlaz Potemklne capitulated unconditionally to Vice Admiral Krugers squadron, and at 6:30 this afternoon the vessel was slowly steaming three miles dis tant after Admiral Kruger's vessels, which had already sailed and were risible six miles away. Exactly what happened during this day ef dramatic surprises is to a great extent a matter of conjecture, aided by binoculars. EXPECTED NAVAL FIGHT DID NOT COMB OFF. After the shots the Kniaz Potemklne fired before midnight Thursday, noth ing further happened. Anxious Odessa woke early to find the Black Sea Squadron lying off Langcron Point, and everyone was expecting a unval fight. The city was like an armed camp. Troops barred all the approcches to the harbor and were bivouacking la tenttt In Cathedra! Square, and four batteries of artillery, well supplied with ammunition, had lwa placed in the park and at Langcron.
